yeah, that wired article is wholly believable.  He was a media figure so he had media contacts.  Obviously they tended toward the rw media ecosystem but also some legitimate news outlets in there.

So Trump singlehandedly tanks the markets, then is a little bitch and backs down from his own mess, and this is how its framed by CNN.

It doesn't matter whether you love 60 Minutes or hate it, or even whether or not you even watch it—this is bad. 

 

the fault here is Paramount more than the gov. US news orgs have gotten heavy heat from administrations they criticized before  (people forget because it's been a while since Nixon).   The difference is in the ownership structure of the news orgs. They are all basically inside the oligarchy now.

Not that I’m defending Paramount, but prior presidents didn’t try to bleed tens of millions out of them tying them up in court cases like this guy is planning to do. It’s next level harassment that really kicks them in the pocketbook, so I can see why some would blink in the face of that.

With any luck, the Harvard thing will somehow inspire Paramount to dig in and fight in the trenches.

Ran across this from administration fishwife nominally the WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and thought it worth a comment.

“It’s been clear since day one of this administration that we are not going to tolerate individuals who leaked to the mainstream media particularly when it comes to sensitive information,” she said Tuesday at a press briefing.

So leaking to the RW media is cool.
